PLEASE HELP PLEASE HELP

List four values that would be a solution to -2x > 10. Then, in 2 to 3 complete sentences, explain how you know your four values are solutions.

Answer 1

-6, -7, -8, -9

Explanation:

-2x > 10

x < -5

So x can be -6, -7, -8, -9

Any number less than -5 is a solution.

The listed ones are the solutions because they satisfy the the inequality,

-2x > 10

x = -6, -2(-6) > 10 12 > 10

x = -7, -2(-7) > 10 14 > 10

x = -8, -2(-8) > 10 16 > 10

x = -9, -2(-9) > 10 18 > 10
